Museu do Teatro Romano

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:41:36

The ultramodern Museu do Teatro Romano catapults you back to Emperor Augustus’ rule in Olisipo (Lisbon). Upstairs is the star attraction – a ruined Roman theatre extended in AD 57, buried in the 1755 earthquake and finally unearthed in 1964. The museum was closed for renovation work at the time of writing and is set to reopen in 2015.
